POLLEN ANALYSIS AT 24YE353 AND MWAC 89-22, ALONG THE YELLOWSTONE RIVER, MONTANA

Summary

Three hearths at 24YE353 were noted eroding from the northern bank of

the Yellowstone River. These features were examined for their pollen and

macro floral content to identify common elements of the local vegetation, as

well as to address possible subsistence activities. In addition, another

site located upstream, MAC 89-22, contained a single hearth, which was

sampled for both pollen and macrofloral remains. These samples are being

analyzed as part of a program of post-fire assessment currently under way at

Yellowstone National Park.
